    Re: An Open Letter to Veterinarians, By a Veterinarian

    When my Hunterwas diagnosed withAIHA and spent 8 days in ICU--getting blood work done every day, usually twice a day as hisd HCT was so low, getting tons of meds including antibiotics, hving 2 transfusions, ultrasound, x-rays, and then of coure at theend of the 8th day he died and a necropsy charge (not for my et's work, but for the lab where he sent thetissuessamples) he bill was $2300.  It would have been a LOT more I know in big city clinci

     Bless my darling vet he just kept telling me over and over to not worry about the bill.  He wasn't.  I culd payi as Iouldafordto pyit.  Thank goodness after much letter writing and accusations, etc, the maker of ProHeart6 (that brought on Hunter's AIHA and liver damage, did pay $1049.71diagnositc part of bill.

     I think most folks are not so lucky to have a vet like mine.  My brother in Austin had been using same vet for

    almost 20 years with dogs and cats.
